Here's is a picture of Bill Venners, circa 1995, back before he'd ever heard of Java, when he
spent most of his time programming C++ and MFC on Windows. Note the pained look on
his face as he types into the keyboard.

After Java

By contrast, here's Bill in the spring of 1999, drinking a Guinness in a pub in Dublin, Ireland,
where amateur musicians were making beautiful music
in the next room. Bill looks so happy because it had been almost four years since he'd written
a line of C++, MFC code. He's all Java now.
